Show Notes 

The month of May is often referred to as the month of Mary as we celebrate Our Blessed Mother. Mary’s May crowning ceremonies are commonly found taking place throughout many Catholic churches. One of the ways we can grow closer to her is through the praying of the rosary. But there are other ways we can get to know Mary, especially under the many titles she has been given over the centuries.

In this week’s episode, Jennifer has a conversation with Catholic author Maria Gallagher who has written about her devotion to Mary, focusing on Mary under the title of “Comforter of the Afflicted”.

Our Guest

Maria has worked in radio as a reporter and in television as a news producer. She is a writer, life coach, and a podcaster and loves inspiring crowds with her speaking. Her freelance news reports have aired on outlets including CBS Radio and AP Radio. She has also earned awards from the Associated Press, the Society of Professional Journalists, and the Cleveland Press Club. Maria loves communicating the beauty of truth!

Show Notes 

As we enter the month of May, we recognize that in our Catholic faith, it is a month dedicated to Mary. But it is also a month dedicated to Mental Health and awareness. And while there have been great strides made in terms of helping those who have suffered the loss of a loved one or are in any state of grief and sorrow, there are resources, how can we integrate our faith into our healing? And how can this help us understand that redemptive suffering can help us move forward in our lives?  

Our Guest

Marie is an Arizona native who has called North Texas home since 2006. A cradle Catholic, her faith was shaped through years of Catholic education and the influence of her grandmother, the Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, an Irish immigrant priest from her childhood parish, and the Franciscan Friars who led her high school.

She was married for 17½ years and is the mother of five children. After the sudden loss of her husband in September 2019, she felt called to walk alongside others in their healing, which led her to earn a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Divine Mercy University graduating in 2023.

Today, Marie is the founder of Spes Et Fortitudo Counseling in Colleyville, Texas, where she integrates her faith and clinical training to support those she serves. She loves spending time with her children, close friends, and traveling whenever she can.

Show Notes 

Nothing can prepare anyone for the loss of a loved one. As we continue to learn through the many stories we’ve heard here on the Mourning Glory Podcast, each loss is unique to each individual. But when a parent loses a child, it carries its own unique sense of loss for the parents and other family members. Where can people turn to find comfort, hope, and healing when grieving the loss of a child? Jennifer explores this and more with guest Elizabeth Leon, the Director of Family Support for Red Bird Ministries.

Our Guest

Elizabeth Leon is the Director of Family Support for Red Bird Ministries, a Catholic grief support ministry for families of child loss. Red Bird Ministries accompanies individuals and couples through the complexity and trauma that happens with the loss of a child through miscarriage and stillbirth or as an infant, child, adolescent, or adult. They also serve families who have experienced the loss of a loved one to suicide and offer sibling support for children ages 2018.  Elizabeth is the founder of the Journey of the Beloved, a ministry that inspires and equips others to find healing and freedom in Christ, a mission that was birthed after the death of her son in 2018.

Journaling Questions

1. In your own journey with loss, how long do you feel like you were deep “in the trenches of grief”, as Elizabeth shared? Have you found any resources or sources of comfort?

2. Where is a safe space you feel like you can grieve? If you have yet to find it, 

3. Have you ever struggled with your relationship with God in terms of “why” or did you, like Elizabeth, struggle with the “how”?

4. Do you feel comfortable sharing everything with God? Why or why not?

5. How do you express your emotions with others in times of need? Have you shared them with God?

6. Have you ever worried that those around you couldn’t handle all of the emotions that you want to share? Take some time to explore why or why not.

7. Elizabeth and Jennifer spent a lot of time talking about the Psalms. Did any of them resonate with you? Why or why not?

8. What is your mourning glory?

Shownotes

We might often find ourselves going to the rote prayers of the Rosary or even the Divine Mercy Chaplet. While we may think they are separate, are they really so separate in terms of how we think of them? Or is there a way that God can bring us together through both of these prayers? Is there a way that they can, no pun intended, marry each other? In this week’s episode, Jennifer has a conversation with guest, Shane Kapler, to discuss the fact that there is a relationship between the Rosary and the Divine Mercy Chaplet.

Our Guest

For the past 30 years Shane has been involved in evangelism and catechesis within the Archdiocese of St. Louis. He holds an M.A. in Theology with a Specialization in Sacred Scripture. Shane currently serves on the board of the Image of God Institute, an apostolate dedicated to unpacking God’s plan for the human person in the teachings of Popes St. John Paul II and Benedict XVI.

He is also the author of several books, including the one we will be discussing today, Marrying the Rosary to the Divine Mercy Chaplet (2016). He has been featured on EWTN's The Journey Home, is a frequent guest of Catholic radio, and contributes articles to a number of websites, including Catholic Exchange and Epic Pew. Shane also holds an M.A. in Speech-Language Pathology and is engaged in clinical practice.

Journaling Questions

1. Do you have a normal prayer routine? What does it look like? Could it use a reset? Take some time to reflect on this.

2. How often do you pray the Rosary?

3. What are your thoughts on the fact that there are so many similarities between the Rosary and Divine Mercy Chaplet? Did you ever think about the fact that there could be a relationship between them?

4. Have you ever tried Lectio Divina, the practice of taking a particular verse on scripture and mediating on it? If not, try it practicing the prayer

5. In talking about the best time to pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet being three o’clock, Shane brought up the point that “it’s three o’clock somewhere.” Does that give you encouragement to pray it more frequently, regardless of what time it might be where you are? Why or why not?

6. What is your biggest takeaway from this episode?

**Trigger Warning: This episode may be sensitive to some listeners and viewers, as it discusses the topic of domestic abuse. Listener and viewer discretion is advised.

***Disclaimer: If you are a victim of domestic violence or domestic abuse seeking information or assistance or know someone who is, please contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233). You can also text the word “START” to 88788.

Show Notes 

In previous episodes, we’ve explored a variety of stories that have shared the different ways we can grieve and the different types of losses we may experience. However, some experiences with grief and loss can prove far more complex, especially when someone is dealing with grief and loss while still in the presence of the person or even in a relationship. How can one both move through the unique type of grief associated with domestic abuse? Is it possible to heal from it and become whole? 

In this episode, Jennifer has a conversation about a topic that may be difficult to hear or watch. Tune in to this candid interview with our guest, Jenny duBay, as she courageously shares about a topic near and dear to her heart to help others know they are not alone. 

Our Guest

Jenny duBay writes historical fiction inspired by the lives of medieval mystics - women who walked through chaos, suffering, and spiritual fire, and emerged with a grace that still speaks across centuries. Their courage became a lifeline in her own healing journey. Now she tells their stories, weaving history with themes of resilience, beauty, and the search for truth, so they can inspire others the way they inspired me.

In addition to her fiction, she also writes non-fiction for women navigating betrayal, trauma, or spiritual wounds—not with formulas or platitudes, but with honesty, clarity, and the reminder that they are not alone.

Shownotes

We’re in a New Year, new year’s resolutions, a time for transformation and often in grief, we have mixed feelings. On one end, it's a fresh start, an opportunity to look to change, but on the other end, we move  into uncharted waters and the grief and heartbreak follow with us. We ask those simple questions.  God, it's supposed to be a new year. Why do I still feel miserable? Why hasn’t this pain ended? How much longer do I need to stay in this space? But this is also where God meets us and the true transformation begins.  In this episode, we are going to talk about why not one moment of suffering is wasted and how each of these moments can actually turn us into who God wants us to be. 

Our Guest

Jodi Snowdon is an author, podcaster, and speaker who helps women grow deeper in their faith and stronger in their relationships.
